The top of the Properties page has the three fields that define the profile map:

• Profile Name is the name of the profile as shown in Tekla Structures in the Profile field of the part’s Properties panel.

• Profile Type is either Precast or Reinforcement.

• Category is the list of available categories for the chosen Profile Type.

...

• • Precast has the following options:

    • Column

    • Insulated Panel

    • Solid Panel

    • IT Beam

    • L Beam

    • Rect. Beam

    • Spandrel

    • T Beam

The grid displays the relationships between the part’s properties and the profile string’s index. The rows are set automatically according to the type selected in the Category drop down box. The grid is made of three columns:

• Property shows the name of the properties as defined in Eriksson’s design software. This column is not editable.

• Index/Value is the input column for relating the property value to either the profile string’s index or a constant value.

• Is Constant should only be checked if the value in the Index/ Value column is a constant value and not an index to a variable value in the Tekla Structures profile string.
